got emissive sprites wired up and working! tried out making the player emissive and i think it's pretty neat (but too flickery). this has been so satisfying to build

Our game's lighting stuff is going to be so cool... my dev @syynth.dev is amazing
i've been slowly learning to write shaders in #bevy and i'm working my way towards a 2D GI solution with radiance cascades. finally got my SDF calculation composited with the rest of the scene and it feels so goood!

Color glow up! 🎨✨
Been testing colors on these grayscale mockups. How's this looking?

Another grayscale mockup! This time it's a spooky interior, representing a small portion of a level.

I didn't have a particular location in mind, but I think this looks like a church perhaps?

Gonna work out a color palette next!

Another mockup in my grayscale series! This time, it's an interior test environment.

Grayscale screenshot of my game's main hub:
✨ Capella Town! ⭐

I'm doing a variety of grayscale mockups before finalizing the color palette, so I'll be posting more of these soon. 😊

Here are a few sprite variants I've done for the characters since my last post...

Still working out what size will be best overall, but I'd like to believe these are showcasing improvement in my pixel art skills! :)

Feedback and questions welcome!

Been working really hard on my game lately, and I've gotten a ton of sprites done. I've only just started learning pixel art, but it's a lot of fun so far!

Here's a quick look at the main characters...

Here's my first go at a starter pack: Transmasc artists in the fantasy and TTRPG sphere. Spotlights are rare for us so I took matters into my own hand.

I'm happy to add folks to this as long there's room.
